Equipment

  • Equipment Needed: Cocktail shaker, jigger (or measuring spoon), glassware (flute or tumbler), stirring spoon

Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients
  • 1 cup pomegranate juice freshly squeezed for the best flavor
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract or 1 oz vanilla-flavored vodka for an alcoholic version
  • 1 cup club soda or sparkling water
  • Fresh pomegranate seeds for garnish
  • Ice cubes
  • Lime or lemon slices optional, for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Method
  • Prepare the Ingredients:
  • Gather all your ingredients. If you're using fresh pomegranate juice, ensure it's ready to go.
  • Mix the Base:
  • In a cocktail shaker, combine the pomegranate juice and vanilla extract. If you’re opting for a boozy twist, substitute the vanilla extract with vanilla-flavored vodka.
  • Shake it Up:
  • Fill the shaker with ice cubes. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for about 10-15 seconds. This not only chills the mixture but also combines the flavors beautifully.
  • Strain and Serve:
  • Strain the mixture into a glass filled with fresh ice. You can use a fine mesh strainer to catch any pulp if desired.
  • Add the Fizz:
  • Slowly pour in the club soda or sparkling water. This will create that delightful fizz!
  • Garnish:
  • Top off your drink with fresh pomegranate seeds and, if you like, a slice of lime or lemon for an extra pop of flavor.
  • Enjoy!:
  • Give it a gentle stir and enjoy your Vanilla Pomegranate Fizz!
  • Variations
  • Add Fresh Herbs: Muddle some fresh mint or basil in the shaker before adding the juice for an herbal twist.
  • Frozen Fruit Addition: Instead of ice cubes, use frozen pomegranate seeds or berries to keep the drink cold without diluting it.
  • Mocktail Version: Simply omit the vodka or any alcohol for a refreshing, non-alcoholic drink.
